Divining, often referred to as prophetic divination, is the practice of seeking knowledge or guidance from a higher power or spiritual source. This can involve various methods, such as interpreting signs, symbols, or omens, and is commonly associated with religious or spiritual traditions. Practitioners believe that these insights can provide clarity about the future or reveal hidden truths. In many cultures, divining is linked to figures like prophets or oracles, who are thought to possess special abilities to communicate with the divine. Techniques may include the use of tools like tarot cards, runes, or crystal balls, each serving as a medium to facilitate the connection between the practitioner and the spiritual realm.
